As always it’s easy to hold either this or the opposing view whilst we debate it from our ivory keyboards.

Are you really asking this?
If a NATO member retaliates against Russia, the World dies in a Nuclear World War III.
Yes, 1000’s of innocent Ukrainian civilians are being hit by Putin, but the second we hit Putin’s forces. World will be at Defcon 1, nuclear war imminent or has already started.
Russia will deploy most of its 6,400 nuclear warheads and many of them will each have a major city in the UK and around the world in their targets. Just like they did during the height of the Cuban missile crisis at the start of the 1960’s.
After Russia fires Nukes at us, in retaliation, we and other NATO members strike back and hit Russia.
600,000,000 would die and millions more during nuclear winter and spikes in radiation levels around the northern hemisphere would last for decades.
Nobody wins this.
